The second day of the ASCAP/Filter party continued to dazzle audiences with great rock bands from around the world, culminating with a searing performance by Kaiser Chiefs. On the last day of the festival, ASCAP presented intimate and memorable performances by six talented singer/songwriters at its Acoustic Afternoon showcase. ASCAP Executive VP of Membership Todd Brabec and his brother, VP of Business Affairs at Chrysalis Music Group Jeff Brabec, also presented their panel, “Music and Money: How Songwriters and Music Publishers Make Money in the 21st Century”

The Cribs, a last minute replacement for Phoenix, who had to cancel their gig, delivered the goods.
